EBET CEO Aaron Speach said the company had seen increased betting engagement since the start of the World Cup, and it expected this weekend to continue that trend. “England versus France is going to be a thriller, and I will be cheering on England,” he said.
The match will kick off on Saturday at 7pm GMT/2pm ET.
